For the Democrat
Birthday Anniversary.

On the 21st inst. we had the pleasure of be-
ing a guest at a birthday dinner party at the
residence of Curtis Wilkinson, of Eaton in
commemoration of his sixtieth birthday. 1t
was one of the most pleasant family reunions
we ever witnessed. Three daughters who are
married and their husbands, were present; q
brother and wife and a sister and husband
were also guests; besides friends who came
in to enjoy this social family reunion. There
is perhaps nothing. more pleasant than the
kindly greetings of a well regulated family
when they all meet under their parental roof,
to bring to their remembrance many happy
topics for social chat. After the company had
enjoyed themselves in social conversation, we
were invited to an adjoining room where Mrs.
Wilkinson and daughters had stored quite
lot of we'll chosen presents for the husband
and father, as q token of their love and es.
TEEN. After the presentation was made Mr.
Wilkinson responded by saying he hoped t.
live long enough to reciprocate the favor. W.
were then invited to the dining room, where
there was a feast prepared that could not east
ly be excelled, which proved conclusivel,
that Aunt Sarah Wilkinson had graduated il
the culinary department. A GUEST.

Circuit Court.

As stated last week, Circuit Court met on
Tuesday and remained in session until Fri
day morning. With the exception of two
cases the entire docket Twelve cases) was
submitted, but as yet only one case has been
decided.
The case of /. E. Craig, Receiver, VS.. C. F.
Brooke ct al, in which the plaintiff sought to
set aside the deeds to Martin and Clements
as fraudulent, was finally disposed of. After
the plaintiff closed his evidence the defend
ant demurred to the evidence, which was sus-
tanned by the Court on the ground that the
evidence showed that the claim was barred by
the statute of limitations and the petition was
dismissed. This will probably end the case,
though exceptions were saved by plaintiff.

their fragrance on the playful wind;
the pretty snake and handsome frog

A horse and buggy belonging to John
Bailey, hitched on Barron street several
hours on Monday last, through restless
ness had worked the tap of one of the
front wheels off and when the gentle
man started for home, off dropped the
wheel and away went the horse at a
frightful speed down Main street to the
iron bridge, at which point, throughth
pluck of Bailey, and a cigar he tightly
clinched in his teeth, the animal was
checked up with but slight damage to
buggy and horse. The run off created
quite an excitement, as everybody ex-
pected the occupant of the vehicle to be
badly used up, but the cigar saved him.
